Product Description
The 63481-40AX unit is a resistor module that was designed and distributed by Reliance Electric. Typically, the 63481-40AX resistor module can be found within our stock here at AX Control. This is despite the fact that this product has been discontinued by Reliance Electric and they therefore no longer sell it. If you have any questions about the 63481-40AX resistor module or would like to receive a quote, you may contact us via phone or email anytime between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. during the week.
The 63481-40AX resistor module is a replacement part. It is compatible with many of Reliance Electric’s drive systems. Because of this, it is recommended that a few of these be in store as a failsafe in case the drive system’s internal resistor module becomes defective.
The 63481-40AX resistor module is a cylindrical device with two pointed poles. On one of these poles, you will attach a wire that has a stab-on female connector. On the other pole, you will attach a wire that has a terminal loop on the end. Printed onto the 63481-40AX resistor module’s surface, you will find its specifications, which is 50 Watts of power and 30 Ohms of electrical resistance.
There are many performance tests that can be done using the 63481-40AX resistor module. For example, there is the Thermal Shock performance test, which applies rated power until the system is thermally stable, and sets it at -55 degrees Celsius for a minimum of 15 minutes. In addition to that, there is a Load Life performance test, which applies 1000 H at rated power, with +25 degrees Celsius and 1.5 H when “ON” and 0.5 H when “OFF.”
